Understanding the concept of Mapping of Visual Parameters

The near/far fluctuations of the limits of our vision is the aim of this exercise which attempts to plot such parameters in a simple diagrammatic form.

• Find a central open space in a locality

• Draw the surrounding buildings/objects in PLAN

• Stand in the middle and rotate on the spot. By rotating on the spot draw a line which describes at eye level; the shape of the limits of your all round field of vision.

• Thus we create a spatial bubble.
